Winery | Simpsons Wine Estate is situated in the Elham Valley, an unspoilt seam in the North Downs of Kent, where the contours of the land, the climate and the soil are excellent for viticulture. The intensely lime-rich chalk soil forms part of the same chalk ridge that stretches from southern England to Burgundy. The grapes come from the Roman Road single vineyard, where the Guyot pruned vines are trained on vertical foliage wires to help with canopy management. The Chardonnay vines are Burgundy clone 548 and are planted at a density of 4,200 vines per hectare. They are grown on south-facing slopes, ensuring heat accumulation during the day and cold air drainage at night. The vineyard is less than eight miles from the coast, providing a crucial maritime influence insulating the fruit against intense temperature variations. Grass cover crops between the rows encourage biodiversity. Pruning and harvesting occur by hand, and they are signed up for the Wine GB Sustainability Scheme. |
